Full bodied lips!

Ok so I told a lie..My next post was going to be my birthday haul, but i haven't received everything yet so its gonna have to wait.
In the meantime, I do have a product that I wanna share with ya'll that I did get for my birthday.  Buxom's Full-on Lip Cream in White Russian is an absolute dream in a tube for the lips.  A gorgeous nudey pink color that does have a decent amount of color payoff.  It is a tad sheer but that makes it perfect for layering on top of lipsticks.  Very creamy formula thats not sticky at all and lasts a decent while, for a lipgloss.  It smells like cake batter, and delivers a tingling sensation to the lips (plumping effect).  This lipgloss is a MAJOR win in my book!

CORALista

Happy Spring Break!!!

I was wanting to try some new blushes so I ordered Benefit Cosmetics CORALista blush. Honestly I only ordered it because of the cheetah print packaging (my favorite print)!

Turns out I REALLY REALLY love this blush! I haven't stopped using it since I used the first time! It is a coral pink with lots of shimmer to it! but it goes so nicely with my skin tone and blends well! Plus it matches all my coral lips and eye shades I have! Yes! I may be slightly obsessed with coral make up but its perfect for spring and summer!

Here is a picture I took. You can see the pink and coral hues of it! CORALista also has a nice clean, refreshing smell to it!

I still can't get over the packaging! I LOVE the cheetah print! It makes my morning a little bit better knowing that such a great blush came from me picking my favorite animal print for fun!

I plan on buying the rest of the line of blushes here in a few weeks! Once I do, there will be a post of further details about them! Until then, Stay Beautiful!

MAC Lippies

So I am not only late on getting this up, I am late on being late.  Turning 24 on Sunday sort of threw me for a loop, but Im back to a normal schedule I hope!
Anyways, for my birthday I purchased a few lip products from MAC.  I have wore their Studio Fix Fluid and Pro Longwear concealer for years, but have never ventured to the lip products.  WHAT HAS BEEN WRONG WITH ME????
I ordered Snob, Ravishing and a LipGlass in Nymphette.

Snob is a light neutral pink and has a Satin finish.  The satin finish is still moisturizing, without compromising opacity.  Goes on like a dream, very creamy and doesn't streak or bleed.

Snob (Satin)

Ravishing is a clean light peachy coral and is a Cremesheen finish.  Once again, the color payoff is amazing.  This one is a little more sheer than Snob, but is totally build able.

Ravishing (Cremesheen)

Nymphette is a sunny golden pink, frosted lip glass.  Now the color of this is stunning, very subtle golden sheen to it makes it great for topping off just about any lipstick.  However, the consistency is tacky.  Not something that would phase most people, it is a deal breaker for me.  I will continue to use this one, but will most likely not purchase anymore LipGlasses.

Nymphette LipGlass (Frost)

With that being said, I fell so hard for the lipsticks that I went back and ordered 4 more.  Angel, Creme Cup, Honey Love and Sophisto.  Cant wait to get these in and see if I love them just as much!

Better Than Sex????

She said what?!?!  Haha!  No for real, I have recently discovered the most amazing mascara I have ever used, Too Faced Better Than Sex.  Let me just start by saying wholly molly this stuff is phenomenal.  Not only is the brush pure perfection (hourglass shape, natural-esque bristles) the formulation is from the heavens.  It applies seamlessly from the first coat to the fourth coat.  >yes I wear four coats of mascara<.  It separates the lashes and doesn't leave the clumpy and it gives the most amazing length and definition I have ever seen.  Doesn't smudge onto the lash lines or run and comes off easily without pulling out your eyelashes!  This is a product that has made HG status after a handful of uses and I recommend anyone who wears mascara to pick this baby up!

Look at those gorgeous lashes!!!

Product Shoutout!

Hello Makeup Lovers!

Today I'm going to have to do a product shoutout on a few products I have discovered over the last week! These products are absolutely amazing and I never would have guessed how awesome they were before I used them!

First I want to share an amazing mousse eyeshadow! Its e.l.f. Studio Long-Lasting Lustrous Eyeshadow! At first I was skeptical because I have tried cream eyeshadows before and I have found that they tend to go on really clumpy and are hard to blend and work with! NOT e.l.f. version! it is a mousse gel eyeshadow.


It goes on really smoothly and is very easy to blend and work with! Best part of all is it lasts ALL day without smudging or creasing or anything!


I would recommend this to anybody! It is very affordable and is of amazing quality!!

 This product is easy to work with and when you go to blend it doesn't lose its pigment or sparkle!

This photo was taken 11 to 12 hours after I applied the product! it literally looked like I had just put it on!










My other product I want to rave about today is MAC lipstick in Costa Chic! this color is a gorgeous pink! it guides on smoothly! has an amazing frost finish! I am in LOVE with this color! It is the perfect pink lip!

This is going to be one of my go to lipsticks for a pink lip! And being a MAC lipstick they tend to last longer then most!




So here are a few products that I thought needed to be recognized for their awesomeness!

Stay Beautiful!

The Biggest SECRET About Wearing Makeup

Hello Ladies!

So recently I have been wearing lots of bold bright red and coral lipsticks! And more then anything I've heard people saying how it looks so good on me and that they could NEVER pull it off. I want to share the biggest secret in wearing makeup. You have to be confident in yourself!! Yes I know some shades look better on certain skin tones but if your not confident about yourself you will never think a bold lipstick looks good!

I understand being afraid to try new things! I have been there! I tried so many different types of make up styles and ways of application. The best thing for anybody who is learning wants to learn or is having trouble is to go get a make over! Seriously go to your local mall or department store and have one of the make up ladies completely give you a makeover! Most at your major department or make up stores have trained professionals!

Before you start the makeover ask them to tell you step by step what they are doing so you can repeat the look by yourself (this does take practice!) Also ask the to match you to some eyeshadows and a variety of lip colors!

Makeup is an Art! so it does take practice! Nobody is perfect there first time! and even the major professionals still make booboos here and there. I suggest when you want to go for a certain look for a date or whatever the occasion do a few dry runs first! Make sure you have the look down before your big day, because nothing is more frustrating trying to get a new make up look perfect being limited for time before a big occasion. When I first start trying new looks it may take me up to two hours to get it just right the first time but once I know what I need to do it is simple and easy from there!

So remember Ladies!!! CONFIDENCE is the key to great makeup and feeling Beautiful!

Stay Beautiful

Be Confident,

Brittany
